Create or revise a business guide, reviewed query, semantic model, relationship or metric in the configured context store. Use for context authoring and migration; use improve-context for diagnosing evaluation failures and comparing changes.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Maintain context Read `docs/CONNECTED-CONTEXT.md` for the implemented commands and storage contract. Resolve the actual context source, inspect its catalog and look for existing resources before adding another. 1. Clarify audience, meaning, scope, source and owner. Ask about missing business rules rather than inventing policy. Guides explain meaning; queries give reviewed examples; models/metrics supply supported executable relationships and calculations. Keep guide prose in business terms: populations, qualifying behavior, units, time rules, exclusions and limitations. Plain-language formulas are appropriate. Physical table/column mappings belong in dataset documentation or semantic models; keys/joins in models and relationships; executable expressions in metrics or reviewed SQL. Do not expand a guide into a technical recipe just to make an evaluation pass. This is our architecture choice, not a universal restriction on all context products. 2. Read `templates/semantic/<kind>.yaml` for a model, metric or relationship; use `templates/guide.yaml` or `templates/query.yaml` for guides or approved SQL entries. …

How to install
mdr add ai-analyst-lab/ai-analyst/maintain-context@sha256:78692bfade1f7a9aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260930.0a47c0b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
